RESTORATION PLAN' <br /> Kelly and Shawn Brown <br /> 28281 Johnson Lake Road <br /> Johnson Lake <br /> Comp. No. 020.4323.01.200 <br /> Buffer Restoration <br /> The restored buffer must extend from the ordinary high water mark 50 feet i land on <br /> Class 2 lakes such as Johnson Lake. <br /> Buffers consist of two major components: the first component(35 feet deep is a no- <br /> touch, natural vegetation zone, and the second component is a minimum ma ntenance <br /> zone. A single viewing/access corridor up to 30 feet wide may cross both zones <br /> perpendicular to the shore. Vegetation removal, cutting,trimming, and 1 nd <br /> disturbing activities are prohibited in the no-touch zone. Limited pruning and <br /> mowing are allowed in the viewing/access corridor and the minimum maintenance <br /> zone. Walkways,pathways, and stairs must be located in the viewing/access corridor; <br /> and piers, wharfs, and lifts must be placed in water immediately in front of the corridor. <br /> The no-touch zone must be established and maintained from the ordinary hi hwater mark <br /> and extend inland as indicated on the site plan. The remaining buffer area, a Ktending back <br /> to 50 feet, must be vegetated. <br /> The Shoreline Buffer Restoration Guide for Landowners provides planting <br /> instructions,plant lists and sources, and additional guidance for your restoration <br /> project. <br /> Viewing Corridor <br /> The viewing corridor location may be moved, but may be no more than thir y feet wide. <br /> There will be additional planting of native plants required if the viewin corridor <br /> does not include the pathway of bare sand to the lake. The viewing corridor must be <br /> located at least ten feet from either property line. The dock must be directly in front of the <br /> viewing corridor. <br /> Vegetation must cover the viewing corridor above the ordinary high water mark. We <br /> recommend allowing vegetation to grow below the ordinary high water m as well. <br /> Lawn grass is suitable in the viewing corridor (above the ordinary high water mark). We <br /> have seen good success with fine fescue grasses planted in the sand(if they are watered <br /> regularly). One company markets these grasses as a no-mow grass because t is a shorter <br /> grass if left to grow. (Fescue turf grasses available from Prairie Nursery 1-800-476-9453. <br /> Prairie Nursery recommends 5 lbs/1000 sq. ft.) <br /> prepared by Cheryl Clemens,Harmony Environmental,on behalf of the Burnett County Land and Water <br /> Conservation Department.
